Today's Mani idea came from the Lovely Nihrida. When I saw her Leaves Mani, my first reaction was "WOW, that is GORGEOUS!" my next reaction was "I GOTTA DO THIS!!!"

So I did, which is why I titled this post like I did! :)

I figured I better make it a bit different. So I decided to do each nail it's own "leafy" color!

I started with a base of Wet and Wild "Rustic" from the Craze collection.

I am so addicted to this color now!!! It's gorgeous!

Then I added 1 coat of various polishes over "Rustic".

Now here is where I kinda screwed up. See I varied the finger I put each color on one each hand. And I took a picture of my left hand pre-Konad, but took a picture of my right hand post-Konad. So bear with me while I identify each top coat per finger on both hands, LOL

That was confusing!

Ok, let's go pinkie to thumb(all are 1 coat):

Sinful Colors "Show Me the Way"(it was more visible in reality)

Hard Candy "Sweet P"

no top, just "Rustic"

Hard Candy "Lava"

Thumb was all of the above. I dabbed on spots of color, wiped the brush off, then stippled with the end of the brush to diffuse the edges better and make it less bumpy.

Then I broke out M56 And stamped it 3 times per nail to it was all covered, and voila!

On this hand the colors were as follows, pinkie to thumb:

Hard Candy "Lava"

Sinful Colors "Show me the Way"

No topper, just "Rustic"

Hard Candy "Sweet P"

All of the above!

You'll have to excuse the lack of clean-up. We were at the track when I did this and I ran out of Q-Tips during Konading, so I had none for clean-up.

Thank you Nihrida, for the AWESOME idea! I would NEVER have thought to use the tip image this way!

Oh, honey! =) I never thought you'd like it to much to ''copy'' it. Well, I have a news for you - I have one of your manis saved on my computer for such a long time... Even before we swapped. I'm gonna copy it soon. ;) Pay back time! =)))You did great! I like yours better. =)
